Laxey Turbine Generator House
Archaeology
The site of a modern turbine house. A power station which housed a water turbine is located at this location. It provided additional power to the power station upstream (PRN 2373.30).
The turbine house was served by a 380 metre race drawing water from the tail race serving the larger power station upstream. The race is now incomplete, having been breached by floods and riverine erosion 160 metres above the turbine house.
